For jayboosh :D

Its probably too early to tell, but is mono black going to be better than ub? What do you gain by cutting blue? Everyone is talking mono B-jayboosh

:D while it might be too early to tell, wotc seems to be giving up little hints at a mono black deck.there are Powerful cards like grave Titan, go for the throat, massacre wurm and abyssal persecutor are being thrown at us. But the problem lies in actual card advantage. Gone are the days of necrotopence, phyrexian arena, oversold cemeteries and BoBs. Alas we are stuck with sign in blood and phyrexian rager and... Dark tutaledge? Strictly a worse arena bleh. The problem maybe be just card advantage but it's a huge problem for mono black.
Right now blue complements black so well. You get the card draw in preordain, jace...see beyond? Blue sun zenith?... And the kill spells of black Ex dooms blades throats vendetta black sun and smother
The other bonus you get from blue Is counter magic. With out counter magic decks like cawblade and valakut shit on mono black all day. so pretty much every weakness thT black has as a standalone deck slisnmade up by blue you see.
What's awesome is that blacks battlefields effects complement blue to make it much much stronger ex grave titan percy and massacre wurm. Like I said, at this point in time it's hard to say If mono black will work. It if wizards reprints FoW with phyrexian mana or dash hopes comes back and they also print better drawing cars for black I can see it working but if they don't support the color then it's going to just be creatures and subpar spells. Also a good fucking walker for black would be nice. Vess can't do it alone
